Add value to your home Expert Advice from Gene Aitken of Surface Trends Whether you’re buying, selling or simply own a home the thing you’re most concerned with is its value. It’s the main reason why you own instead of renting a home. In this recent economy, every home owner should know how to put more value back into their homes. At Surface Trends we know there are beautiful upgrades you can do while also being affordable. With so many ways to add value in your home, here are three that we’ve found have the most bang for your buck:
Flooring:
Flooring is something many people forget about when upgrading their house, though it is something that can make the most impact. The rule of thumb for flooring is the more resilient and long lasting, the higher the upgrade is, but the higher return is on investment. One of the best materials for upgrading existing flooring is natural stone or Travertine. It’s not only beautiful but stone is the only material that improves with age and its natural variations adds character to any home. It’s durability makes it a very practical material to use. With the only two fully computerized CNC machines in Bermuda, anything is possible. At Surface Trends, we can cut the stone to any shape and style. If you imagine it, we will do our best to deliver. It is worth investing in natural stone as it has withstood the test of time and will enhance/beautify the value of your home.
Countertops:
Add real value to your home- Be it the kitchen, bathroom, bars, or utility rooms the more money you can spend into a higher end countertop the better. On average granite countertops will add 25% of its cost to your overall home value. Couple this with the
cost saving fact that you almost will never have to replace the surface, and it becomes a clear economic advantage. What makes granite so desirable is the blend of aesthetic appeal with long-lasting durability. If cared for properly with a sealant, it will not scratch and is heat resistant and will last for as long as your house is standing. We’re here to help and provide a surface that is as maintenance free as possible. But it’s not just the integrity of the stone that has long-lasting appeal, granite is a classic finish to any room. It has been enjoyed for thousands of years and is almost guaranteed to never go out of style. Further, because of the variations of color in every slab, it can be matched to current or future redecorating plans. Granite countertops are desirable enough as a decorative and design device that having them will put your home in the forefront of the real estate market.
Tiling: Available in nearly endless sizes and colors, stone/ceramic tile is extremely versatile for customizing unique focal points be it in the hallway, bathroom or even fireplace. One of the top recommendations for adding value to your house is a kitchen upgrade, but if you can’t afford a full-scale remodel, a smart place to start is with tiling a backsplash. Tile designs don’t have to be elaborate to create effective focal points. Often the quality and look of the tile is enough to grab attention and give the overall design a beautiful point. The possibilities are vast. Mosaic glass tile can be crafted into artworklike designs. Porcelain tile, with superior performance characteristics, is suitable for creating focal points in commercial settings, as well as in residences. Whether the scale of desired focal points is small or grand, tile is up to the challenge. Be it during building, renovations, or simply checking out the housing market be aware of things that may add value to the home. Enjoy living in your space and reap the benefits when you decide to sell.
Now located in the Surface Trends Building on Serpentine Rd. Next door to Serpentine Liquors.

8 tips to care for your wood Expert Advice from Anthony Madeiros of BS&R Group It’s February and that means sticking to those resolutions and giving things a new life and vigour. So while you’re joining the gym or dusting off your old guitar here are 8 tips for giving your home and wooden furniture new life.
1. Dust often: Small particles of dust may seem harmless, but enough buildup can scratch the wood’s finish. Dust at least weekly with a soft, lint-free cloth. Stay away from Pledge and other dust polish, as they contain silicones that can soak into the grain of the wood and damage it for good. Instead, lightly dampen a cloth with water or use a microfiber cloth that will cling to dust particles on its own. 2. Placement matters: Don’t place a wood dining table next to a damp window or heat register. The temperature swings could damage the wood with warping or splitting. Also, store any extra leaves near or inside the table itself. This ensures that the leaf will not warp or swell/ contract differently from the table. If you store the leaf in a basement or attic, the moisture and temperature differential could take its toll. 3. See The light: Excessive or prolonged exposure to sunlight can fade the color of your furniture and dry the wood. Use window coverings or tablecloths to prevent daily direct ex-posure of your furniture to the sun. If you leave objects such as candleholders or vases on an uncovered wood surface, rotate them regularly to prevent dark or light spots. 4. Wax on Wax off: After a good cleaning, the best way to protect the finish is to use a good-quality soft paste wax. Apply a thin coat as directed on the label. Wait five minutes and buff lightly with a soft (shoe) brush or cloth. Wait another 30 to 60 minutes and buff/brush again with a bit more vigor. You’ll see a beautiful shine return to the finish that will last for many months. 5. Check Your Doors: The doors in many households often get neglected when cleaning assignments are handed out. Maybe that’s
because they don’t get dirty as routinely as other surfaces. Apply an oil soap to a rag and wipe the entire surface of the door in the direction of the grain. Then use another soft rag to dry the door, removing any excess cleaner. This will also buff the door to a shine for a beautiful result. 6. Details Matter: Don’t forget all the small details in your furniture and wooden doors & windows. To clean deep into carvings or beadwork, use a toothbrush. When polishing metal hardware, take it off the furniture first. Take your time and make a note to remember what piece goes back where. Use a quality metal polish to get it shining again. Once it’s buffed, put it back on, being careful not to scratch the wood surfaces. 7. Know Your Wood: Wood has two classifications: Not surprisingly, softwood is softer and much less expensive than hardwood. It is often painted or treated, and maintenance usually involves keeping it clean and applying a fresh coat of paint or finish each season. Because it has the potential to last long, withstand the elements and resist insects and decay, hard-wood can be a smart investment. 8. Get in the Garden: You’ve invested in a piece or set of outdoor wood furniture, and you want to make sure it lasts for several years. What’s the best way to protect your outdoor investment from the elements? It’s a combination of keeping it under cover as much as possible, away from extremes in temperature or moisture and ensuring you’ve protected them with weather sealants.
